At least 15 Egyptian anti war activists and organisers against the war on Iraq have been arrested in Cairo. Ten remain in detention without charge. Most have been tortured with electro-shock. Several of those tortured are school students.
14 peace and human rights groups in Egypt have asked us to do what we can to get them released.
